Tentang eBook ini

Admiral Daniel V. Gallery boarded and captured a German U-Boat at sea in June, 1944—the first American officer to so capture an enemy warship since 1815!

U-505 is Admiral Gallery’s own story of his extraordinary feat—and also a gripping narrative of the fierce Allied war against the German U-Boat fleet.

“EXCELLENT.”—Chicago Tribune

“Terrific...the first-hand story of Uncle Sam’s U-Boat killers.”—Chicago Daily News

“Brimming with thrills.”—Philadelphia News

“An engrossing tale...Pungent, entertaining, informative.”—Navy Times

“A humdinger of a sea story...a highly readable book, trimmed from stem to stern with the writer’s irrepressible sense of humor.”—Chicago Sunday Times

“Excellent in several ways: it provides a fine quick survey of the whole Atlantic war, it describes the operation of the German U-boat service, and, most dramatically, it tells how an American task force under Admiral Gallery achieved the unique feat of capturing a German submarine.”—Publishers’ Weekly

“U-505 IS ONE OF THE WAR’S MOST EXCITING MEMOIRS.”—Chicago News

“One of the best non-fiction books about World War II.”—Raleigh News & Observer

“A first-rate adventure tale...suspense and excitement told with a seaman’s salty zest...excellent reading.”—Chicago Sunday Tribune

“A masterful job that merits the attention of every lover of sea stories.”—Pittsburgh Press
